4 April 9, 2016

As depicted in the text logo, right, A Civic People determine civic morality using physics-based ethics to benefit both personal posterity (children, grandchildren and beyond) and adults. Most adults candidly cultivate both civic collaboration and real-no-harm private pursuits, achieving an over-arching culture of private liberty with civic morality--PLwCM. No-harm factional associations, cultures and religions flourish. With practice--by example--more of We the People of the United States understand, and effective civic policy empowers long, private living for most people.

Practice for April 9, 2016

  1. If you are tired of civic meetings that remind you of Crossfire TV events, join our meetings. We state a concern, suggest a remedy, then listen to responses. We listen to the responses, and together create the possibility to improve future living in Baton Rouge. Please mark your calendar for a special meeting, the second collaboration for physics-based ethics respecting family fidelity. Tuesday, April 19, 7:00 PM, Jones Creek Branch Library, . See more detail at theadvocate.com/calendar#/details/Civic-discussion-How-Civic-Morality-Informs-Family/2193425/2016-04-19T19. The table of contents for the thirty-minute presentation follows:
    • Reviewing past two years’ collaboration by 40 people in 7 meetings
      • Collaborative dialogue is necessary; hesitance invites civic loss
      • The status: Collaboration for a better, future seems quietly underway
      • “Civic” expresses moral human connections for now and for the future
      • “Nature,” appealed to in American independence emerged from physics.
      • Four point theory of a connected people: personal privacy; civic collaboration; physics-based ethics for civic morality; and a personally cultivated preamble
      • Physics-based ethics empowers authenticity in human progress
    • From dependent, newborn person; three-decade transition to authentic, full life
      • A prepared couple invites a possible person into mutual fidelity: family and heritage
      • Mutual personal-appreciation and bonding: a splendid human journey
      • Possible consequences of sexual intimacy—some good, some bad
      • Natural abortion: Physics limits its own errors
      • A civic people subjugate neither mom nor baby
      • Civic morality and human fidelity protect the child, the most vulnerable person.
      • A connected people collaborate for a future that is inviting to children
    • Should civic opinion coerce family personal responsibilities?
    • Will Baton Rouge people choose personal liberty with civic morality (PLwCM)?

  2. A chemical engineer trying to give a talk on family fidelity, armed with thorough knowledge of the world’s noble, moral political theory, would be powerlessly uninformed. However, a humble person trying to understand physics and how families can benefit from understanding can create a thoughtful presentation on which other people can overlay their experiences and hopes and thereby create a future perhaps better than the one that is coming like a typhoon.
  3. If physics-based ethics is adopted, how can practitioners be free to innovate—to push the envelope of civic morality? Imaginative persons will then have the best possible basis—the bedrock--for responsibly exploring the unknown: physics. Today, there is nothing but opinion-based ethics –a struggle for more adaptation of Blackstone and theism versus the new-age democracy—whatever an organized, obstructive faction of the people wants and can cram through some errant judge to move past the legislature and/or the administration. Absent religion, which never was a sound basis for civic morality, what is the bedrock foundation on which a people can cultivate an overarching culture of a civic people? We assert it is physics.
  4. A recent visit with my friend and mentor, Gordon Hughmark, brought to light a couple improvements.
    • I must do a more convincing job of presenting the stretch from physics to personal opinion.
    • Keeping the title and non-profit corporation, A Civic People of the United States, I plan to change the subject of most discussions to “a connected people,” instead of a “civic people,” after defining first “civic” and then “a connected people.” Key to this decision is the tie to the literal preamble to the constitution for the USA.
  5. In my continuing, antagonizing contributions on a blog for conservative, constitutional law professors, one anonymous poster addressed my posts sensibly. See www.libertylawsite.org/2016/03/09/american-exceptionalism-is-ending-where/#comment-1428257
  6. Recently, I realized the timeline of history we have been developing since February, 2014, is useful for supporting preservation of monuments. We have pointed out in online forums that viewing the last two-hundred years of slavery and the last fifty years of racism is insufficient to recognize the need for human supremacy rather than skin-colored supremacy: the timeline needs to start at least 3800 years ago, when slavery was institutional.
    We used the timeline-ideas to witness at the senate committee meeting to hear SB 276 on preserving New Orleans monuments. The hearing was a disaster, with no witnesses against and thirteen witnesses for, then the nay vote: five Democrats vs 4 Republicans. It seemed like a closed deal from the start and both sponsoring Senator Beth Mizell and Lt. Gov. Billy Nungesser seemed like amateurs.
    From that meeting forward, I will introduce myself as taxpayer and assert senators’ obligations to exhibit propriety as follow taxpayers and citizens. I will not waste effort trying to learn temporal senate protocol: it is unorganized, impromptu and hard to follow.
    The state’s interest in tourism and civic morality took a back seat to black power and black liberation collective, IMO. We will do what we can to reverse what is happening: anarchy respecting human interests.
  7. On the other hand, some of the witnesses exhibited the typical naiveté of factional, white Christians not appreciating let alone respecting black attitudes. When I refer to black power and black liberation theology, what I referencing is the attitude, held by many blacks and many whites, that white-Christianity has had its chance to show it is influenced by Jesus and has totally failed. The only way black people can achieve black economic supremacy is to keep white people from influencing their lives, with the exception of white people who are doing all they can to collaborate with and effect black-American supremacy.
  8. The next day, a past New Orleans resident informed me of the arrogant removal of a Statue of Rev. Dr. Leroy Abernathy. If so, that is a political-combat begging injustice, which to my knowledge has not been discussed in Baton Rouge forums. “What goes down comes around” seems to come to mind.
  9. Working against white supremacy and black supremacy to establish human supremacy requires complete understanding. Understanding is, naturally, balanced.
  10. The prepared speech for my witness involves an interesting development. I wrote of factional Christianity arrogating against physics, letting the arrogance define “physics.” I think it is powerful and will use future expressions that way. The key sentence is: “the physics of slavery--chains and whips, psychological cruelties, tearing families apart, rape; masters often neglecting responsibilities for safety, food, clothing, housing, and medical care—the physics makes it plain that humans cannot enslave humans except by arrogant, cruel force.”
  11. People who are interested in how other state legislatures handle concerns can find research at National Conference of State Legislatures, www.ncsl.org/
    • The online-resource suggestions we listed in the past are posted in one file at cipbr.blogspot.com.
    • Any suggestions to add to the list of online resources would be welcomed.
  12. These messages go to about 150 people, and about half open the email. No one responds to the messages. A few people who know they are advisors help occasionally, especially if directly asked. Everyone just wants to live. However, just as a person must earn their living to enjoy civic liberty, a person must collaborate for civic justice in order to enjoy private liberty. Political regimes in the USA over the last 228 years have been glad We the People of the United States neglected the preamble to the constitution for the USA. Our generation can start using it.

  13. However, the chances for private liberty with civic morality (PLwCM) are presently eroding. No one knows when their route, whether on a street or on the sidewalk, to a vital meeting or for emergency care, will be blocked by militant, Marxist-Alinsky-disrupters, whether students or adults, or worse: terrorists. For example, such people helped organize to interrupt a Metro-Council meeting. Discussions about municipal planning and support for the medical corridor that exists at Essen and Picardy were delayed 90 days. Thank goodness, Mayor Holden turned down the subsequent bid for $100,000 in public funds.
